Agnitha was probably the best soprano to ever grace the pop world with her presence.
When i listen to this song my eyes tear up as well. Abba for ever. No one else will come close to abba.
Lovely reaction. Abba have been through my life from early 70's . I still get moved emotionally by their music. I can laugh and cry at the same time listening to Abba. No other band touches my soul like these beautiful guys. I was around at the break up and it was heart breaking when Abba stopped. For 10 years I'd had the privilege of going to teh shops as a teenage and buying a brand new Abba album. music was off the scale from these guys and then it stopped. Yes I got into Chess, the musical and some of their solo work, but nothing can replace these angels sent to Earth to make music and basically make the world a better place. As you said to love Abba is to be in touch with feelings of joy, happiness, fun, laughter, despair, love. Nothing quite like them. The world needed Abba. I needed Abba. Love Abba
I didn't grow up on Abba, but heard a song here & there over the years.. always liked them. And then I rented Mama Mia for my mom when it came out (she always loved musicals).. I cried my eyes out when this song was sang/played. It still makes me cry & gives me goosebumps.
Im a Swedish metalhead who loves ABBA, but at first it was not cool to like them as a teenager. But after a couple years all Swedes loved them, and you Brits too.
ABBA had 10 no 1 hitsongs in Britain I think its only beaten by The Beatles.
They still sell like 2 millions records every year.
Its a band who created music that never will die!!
And you MUST do Tommy Johanssons cover, its fantastic with amazing singing from Tommy!
nine singles #1 and 10 albums #1 to ABBA in UK
And they have an album on the top hundred in Britain for more than 1000 weeks and still counting ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I cry every time I hear this song. Going through a divorce and it’s absolutely devastating, but ABBA is getting me through. Thanks for this my friend!
Don’t worry, first time I heard this song I cried too. Agnetha give us pure emotions and you can feel that feeling she wants transmit
She own the stage with her style.
ABBA in the begining two swedish couples, meet inb1969:
Agnetha (blonde singer) &
Björn (guitarist songwriter)
Benny (pianist songwriter) &
Anni Frida (brunette singer)
Agnetha & Björn married in 1971, with two Young childrens
Benny and Frida married in 1978, withouth own childrens
both couples separated before the breakup of ABBA in 1982:
Agnetha & Björn at end of 1978
Benny & Frida at begin 1981
"The winner takes it all" (1980)
is one of the Best Songs by ABBA
and the Most sad and emotional too
The best lyrics by the guitarist Björn
and the greatest performing with the amazing Interpretation
of
the blonde singer Agnetha Fältskog and her soprano voice
The lyrics is a fiction about a divorce,
it is not about Their real life,
although it is obviously influenced by Their own experiences
and the realization of the legal divorce between Agnetha & Björn in the middle of 1980,
even though They were no longer a couple or lived together more than a year and half ago, at the end of 1978
In fact, the song was more nearly in time to the split of Benny & Frida as a couple, only a few months later
"The winner takes it all" return ABBA to the Top of the charts,
gives ABBA their eighth #1 in UK after almost two years and half
Also was the fourth and last Top10 to ABBA in U.S (pick at #8 in 1981)
and #1 in US Adult Contemporary too
"The winner takes it all"
was voted the Best ABBA song by the British fans,
and is the favourite ABBA song to the blonde singer Agnetha
and now in the new Voyage concerts at London that begins exactly one year before, the encore song is...
"The winner takes it all"
I wish to You a nice week
my best regards from

Well done, young man. Your reaction and your words do you and this great, great song (and performance) proud. Well done. Happy life to you, I hope.
The best pop band?
ABBA.... What else?😅
Hey! Great react! and great edition too👌. Congratulations.
I hope to see you soon with more ABBA👑...
Take care,
Greetings ❤ from Chile 🇨🇱👍
I was around, it was very sad watching their demise. I have loved them since 1975 and their return was epic.
Please do a reactionvid to : I can be that woman from their comeback album. As a 72 year old woman she sings about a couple who struggles with the relationship. her vocals are raw and heartbreaking.
It's really interesting that you asked this question "What was life with and without ABBA"! Back then I was singing in a choir (mostly old chorals and motets like J. S. Bach, Felix Mendelssohn, Johannes Brahms but also Heinrich Schütz). At that time I didn't care lot about popular music and what was trend at that time of my childhood! It sounds a little weird but that didn't interest me at all. Therefore I almost missed the beginning of the raise of ABBA! When people asked me about ABBA I'd probably answered: "Not bad but there are much better things in classical music!" (I still think it's partly true when I listen to Fritz Wunderlich, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Victoria de los Angeles, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Hermann Prey or lately Elina Garanca!)
However during the time where my voice changed from 2nd soprano to 2nd bass I was listening to some example of music history beginning with Elvis (which I instantly liked) over The Beatles (I was fond of their songs to sing it myself but didn't like them as a band). But with ABBA it was different. Maybe it's because both ladies were beautiful and at the same time had beautiful voices! Something that isn't right, or is it? A lot of envy there! Yes, I have to admit that I fell in love with ABBA (however at a point where ABBA left the stage). The next singer I really admire is Jennifer Rush! (With a few exceptions like Louis Armstrong, Nat King Cole and his dauther Natalie Cole, to an extent Frank Sinatra and his daughter Nancy Sinatra my interest in popular music cooled down again. Perhaps too much comerce and too little talents besides todays Lady Gaga!)
I don't know whether you (as a tenor) know about Peter Hofmann (a Wagner tenor who unfortunately became Parkinson but was singing pop and rock songs together with his wife Deborah Sasson). This is about what I know about popular music. (Oh I probably forgot about this duet of Freddy Mercury and Monserrat Caballe, where I found Freddy fell short!)
ABBA will live forever.
They will be played long after Taylor Swift fades away.
One of the greatest songs ever !
Perfect Pop, that's how you describe ABBA. Beautiful floating music with the saddest lyrics - they'll never be another band like them.
Old punk rocker here,no huge ABBA fan but ABBA is.....fn ABBA,what can I say . Great reaction brother ❤️
Great reaction! Love this song! Amazing voice and lyrics!
GREAT Reaction! Thank you from Sweden!
Swedish metal rocker Tommy Johansson does a very touching, beautiful cover of this song. ABBA, of course always deliver beautiful music that excites all kinds of emotions.
Am I imagining having seen you do a different reaction to this earlier today? Love your reactions. "Slipping through my fingers" is another tearjerker for a different reason.
I was in my 30's when ABBA was in full sway. To be honest, I liked ABBA at rhe time but was not fully on board. Then again in the 70's and 80's my musical interests were mainly 60's artists + Ilivia Newton John and The Shadows, so I am probably not much help. Looking forward to you doing more ABBA Reactions. Thanks.
Did you see that Australian TV special from I guess the late 70s with ONJ, Andy Gibb (BeeGees’ brother) and Abba - all singing live on a tiny stage. Mesmerising!!
@@penponds also the "jam" session they had? Not sure if that was broadcast as part of the original programme but it is on UA-cam - great!
@@andyjenkinson5070 I’ll have to look for that!
@@penpondssimply search for "Olivia Newton John jamming"
Yeah, I was there... When Agnetha and Björn divorced I (11 yo) was terrified! Was this the end of ABBA? Nope, they carried on, and became even better. When they DID break up, it was silent. ABBA took a break - and the years went by. The sadness for me was that no other artist could really match my first love of pop music. But after some decades, it didn't matter. I realized that I would never grow tired of ABBA's music. Timeless and so many layers, something for every situation in my life. And then, out of the blue, then they came back! Circle closed and if I want an extra ABBA experience, London is 2 hour away.
I agree. I have heard this song many times and knowing it is based upon reality and is so emotionally well written and sung, I still cry. Nonetheless, I love that song. Thanks.
This song goes straight to my heart, always did, since I was teenager until today.....in the 80's I actually didn't listen to them as I was more into alternative music, however, whenever I heard it on the radio it got to me .....listening to it now in my 50's , the same thing, feeling about it never changed, so it is safe to say this one is a classic.....
Before autotune when artist actually could sing••• voice of an angel
But not before lip-syncing, though.(:
I was around in the 70s, and even saw Pavarotti
❤❤🤗
Abba have at least 5 top songs among the top 10 in pop history: The winner takes it all, SOS, One of us, D Queen and Thank you for the music. Maybe the 5 no Abba's songs on the list are Wuthering Heights ( K Bush), You're so vain ( C Simon), I'm not in love (10 CC), Julia (R Wakeman) and Limelight ( A Parsons). Greetings from Brazil.
The vocal performance is outstanding ... Lars is fantastic on bass (as always) and .. those heartbreaking lyrics ... "tell me does she kiss the way I used to kiss you , does it feel the same when she calls your name?"
That’s OK, I’ll take ABBA any day 👍🏻
considering that Björn and Benny were the "background" singers, unbelievable, i always thought there were additional female singers, but no, there were the 2 guys
If you watch their live videos they use additional female singers and additional band members so I imagine that they did in studio recordings too (not to detract from B&B😊)
Agnetha and Frida did all the vocals and harmonies in the studio (Benny and Björn contributed too of course) It was only on stage that they used backing singers (for obvious reasons).
@@ekerowillow1610 thank you for the correction😃
@@andrewjenkinson7052 thanks for your comments. I can remember a song where B&B clearly sang in the background, very high pitched voice but clearly the boys I can't think of it. If my memory comes back I'll let you know
@@morkvomork5557 One Man, One Woman - Benny sings in falsetto
Bro Im a big dude, 198 cm, 115 kg. In my youth I was known to be a hardened street fighter. But this song allways brings tears to my eyes.
👏👏Loved your reaction❗I have always admired the British people.
oh you get emotion ,count me on, in my young age 1980 when i heard this song i only like the quality and composition, and its my favorite pop group ,but now im 60 plus i understand the meaning ,everytime i here this song it makes me cry, all of my cassette vynil ,cd and dvd are gone and lost, .now its make me more sad and emotions ,everytime i hear!!!!!
I have seen quite a few reactions and analysis of this song sung by ABBA and yours is by far the best . I didnt feel the others reacted to this song like I did or really saw how powerfully it was done! Going to watch you from now on (never saw you before this post)
.
To me, Abba is number one. Always has been, always will be. I remember how sad it made me feel reading about the divorce and the group members making other plans, like the ladies wanted to do solo stuff and guys had planned writing a musical together with Tim Rice.
And then, The Day Before You Came came out, a masterpiece like no other. Hauntingly beautiful, so very very sad and absolutely gorgeous song.
Seemingly simple, yet it had everything and then some. Agnetha`s lead vocals are absolutely fantastic and Frida singing the operatic backing vocal.. Wow. Please do react to that and When all is said and done, the Frida & Benny divorce song. Absolutely fantastic, as well.
Hi! Swedish glam rock fan here!
I can highly recommend The Ark (active 1991-2011, plus a reunion tour in 2022), especially "Calleth you, cometh I" and "It takes a fool to remain sane".
Hi. I am a new subscriber. I grew up loving metal, but still love the amazing ABBA.
❤❤❤ To you
Some of the things you had a hard time explaining is the magic of their engineer Michael B Tretow. This was way before computers so it's all analogue. He had the girl record parts over and over, then layering them with different pan. He put thin tape on the capstan of the tape recorder to get a slight off key harmony, he did lots of different stuff. He was heavily inspired by Phil Spectors "Wall of sound" sound.
Nice chatting with you earlier Nathan! Especially about Suzanne :( Sorry for distracting you though LOL x
You really need to listen to Lara Fabian singing Adagio, Broken Vow, You're Not From Here from her Live concert "From Lara with Love" back in 2000. Maybe the best female vocalist/performers ever.
I´m from Sweden, and I clearly remember. Both Agneta and Björn were individually successfull artists from very yong ages. when they fell in love they fast became kind of a "golden couple" in everybodys eyes. They had a fairy tale wedding, two cute kids and quite a career! They were simply considered perfekt. So the news of the break up hit like a bomb! There was no allegations, no drama, but it was truly devastating! Maybe it can be compered to Brad and Jenifer ... ( a little)
You really need to do Tommy Johanssons cover... You'll lose your sh*t 🤣
How about reacting to a movie scene where two (2) drag queens sing: Mamma Mia? The film is Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.
I've just found your chanel and I love your reactions. Brilliant. I'd really love to hear you react to Aurora. I think you would like her.
great reaction, but you need a better mic, feeling things is allright and feeling them with music is healthy, don't skip it man. The alternative is worse.
One of the greatest songs ever. Not live sung here though. Great lip-syncing nevertheless.
This is not a live performance. It’s lip-synched.
Train wreck
